Dear F,
It has been a year. Exactly a year. I'm sorry I took so long to visit. There is no good reason or excuse, I know.
I am not sure if it was good seeing you again. You caused a smile but also pails of tears. Everyone did the same thing- We looked up in hope that the tears will not fall. We bit our lips so that they do not tremble. We did not talk, so that the voice will not break. So humans, we often do the same silly things to hide our weaknesses.
I did not understand half the things Pastor was saying. Or perhaps I was not paying attention. How could I? It was not Pastor's voice I heard. It were your words which fell into my ears, it was your shadow which ran before my eyes.
The most heart breaking was to see your fragile mother sending you off. We should still be happy for you- For you belong to God, and you are back with him.
Goodbye again, F.
